And Your Enemies Closer

In the North West criminal underworld, a deal goes tragically wrong, resulting in war between the two main organised crime factions in the region. Shockwaves rock the 30-mile gap between Liverpool and Manchester - with retired detective Brendan Foley right in the middle of it all. For Brendan, six months after his resignation, life is all different. His marriage is a mess, he's working as a nightclub bouncer, his brother is still missing and he just can't stop searching for the crime family that destroyed his life. And at last, he's found them - and he's got them bang to rights.Iona Madison, his one-time partner and now successor as a DI in Warrington Police, is tasked with a body pulled from the River Mersey - a teen-age boy that went missing the previous year, which might bring her own conduct into question. Not only that, Brendan is feeding her information whether she likes it or not - and his unsanctioned activities are causing her headaches.And now, there's a price on his head. A million pounds, dead or alive. And Your Enemies Closer is a serpentine race against time as Brendan and Iona must stay one step ahead of criminals at every corner, while trying to bring justice - in whatever form it takes, and whatever loyalties it might burn.
